Coronation Tank
Location : Vaishali.
Also Called As
: Abhishek Pushkarni.
Facing the Vaishali Museum is the good-looking lake known as the Coronation Tank or Abhishekh Pushkarni. Surrounded by flowering trees and shrubs, the water of the reservoir was assumed to be holy in the older days and all of Vaishali's selected representatives were anointed here, before their swearing in.
Built on the south bank of the coronation tank is the Vishwa Shanti
Stupa (pillar of peace), which is a major desirability in Vaishali. This monument is one of the uppermost in the world and has been built in collaboration with the Japanese government.
Other places of interest near the Coronation Tank are Chaumukhi Mahadeva,
Harikatora Temple, Lotus Temple and Miranji-Ki-Dargah.
